The desire to know and to be known is a normal human experience. I value the trauma-informed safety and client-centered connection we collaboratively create through a systematic lens. I am particularly sensitive to diversity in culture and self-identity, including with respect to race, gender and sexuality. I believe the importance of affirming the unique individual experience with cultural humility. Through compassion, sensitivity, and empowerment, we will work together respectfully to acknowledge vulnerability, unearth patterns, attend complexity, and gain ownership change to achieve the most authentic and expansive self.

As both a researcher and professor, I bring a unique perspective to my clinical work. I understand that effective therapy must be grounded in evidence-based techniques—approaches that research has shown to work. I also know that no two people or no two couples are the same. That's why personalization is at the heart of everything I do with patients. Together, we'll develop a plan that's tailored to your specific needs, goals, and circumstances while leveraging your existing strengths.

I am Dr. B, Dr. Bertresh, Dr. London or Dr. Nunez, and I have dual licenses as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Virginia. I have been working with children, families, couples, and individuals for over 30 years. In that time, I have found from working with couples that I help serve as their translator to increase communication, understanding, and connection. With individuals, I've helped them thrive by overcoming and significantly decreasing anxiety, anger, depression, lack of motivation, social anxiety, and difficulties communicating.

I support adults navigating disordered eating or eating disorders, compulsive or rigid exercise patterns, body image concerns, anxiety, and relationship stress. Many of the people I work with don’t initially identify with having an eating disorder or anxiety — instead, they notice constant mental chatter about food, exercise, or their body, difficulty slowing down, or a sense that the standards they set for themselves feel exhausting to maintain.

My ideal clients are teens and adults navigating disability, chronic illness, a major life transition, neurodivergence, and/or their LGBTQ+ identity. They want more than just talk therapy: they also need practical support for work, daily routines, and life changes. I help by building skills, executive function systems, and phased return-to-work strategies using my LRC/CRC training and come from a school-based background where navigating major transitions was the focus! Telehealth only at this time.

You might find yourself living with constant worry, a harsh inner critic, or thoughts that get stuck on repeat and feel hard to quiet. At times, even everyday situations can feel overwhelming, leading to a freeze response or a sense of not feeling fully safe in your body. For neurodivergent folks or those impacted by past trauma, these reactions make sense—they’re your nervous system’s way of trying to protect you, not signs of something “wrong” with you. Using a trauma-informed approach, we’ll work gently together to help your nervous system experience more safety, balance, and calm. You do not have to go through this alone.
